Answer:
90 hardcover books
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by setting up a couple of equations.
Let's allow x to represent the number of paperbacks Tim owns, and allow y to represent the number of hardcover books he owns.
Using the information in the question, we can write the equations:
1)x = 4y-3
2) x+y=447
Let's rearrange equation 1 so that it is in standard form:
x-4y=-3
And then let's multiply equation 2 by 4 so that we can cancel out y when we solve the system of equations:
4(x+y=447)
4x+4y=1,788
Then we can add the two equations and solve for x:
1) x-4y=-3
+ 2)4x+4y=1,788
------------------------------------
5x=1,785
x=357
So now we now the number of paperback books Tim has is 357. Let's plug this into one of the original equations to solve for the number of hardcover books (y):
357+y=447
y=90
And now we know that Tim owns 90 hardcover books.
In order to answer this question, we use the concept of ratio and proportion wherein we use the equation,
R1 / T2 = R2 / T1
where R is for rate and T is for time. Substituting the known values to the equation,
(600)/x = (400)/ 20
The value of x from the equation is 30. Thus, it will take 30 hours if the rate was adjusted to 400 gallons per minute.
Answer:
195 pounds
Hope this helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can take 62,400 and divide it by 20 to get 3,120. 3,120 is the amount of gold in ounces so when you convert 3,120 oz into lbs, you get 195 lbs.
